At the EACH Arts & Culture Center (A&C), our programs preserve Asian cultural heritage, strengthen community connections, and expand access to the arts. Through seasonal celebrations, community performances, educational classes, and collaborative events, we bring traditional dance, music, storytelling, and cultural experiences into community centers, affordable housing communities, and public spaces.
These programs create opportunities for Asian immigrant families to celebrate and share their heritage while welcoming people of all backgrounds to experience and appreciate Asian arts and culture.
Our work is made possible through the generous support of corporations, private foundations, Mass Cultural Council—an independent state agency of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts—community partners, and dedicated volunteers. We gratefully acknowledge their financial support, resources, collaboration, and service that help bring these programs to our communities.
The highlights below show this support at work—from cultural performances and seasonal festivals to arts education and community events—bringing people together and helping Asian cultural traditions thrive across generations.
EACH’s Arts and Culture Center is proud to spotlight our Asian Traditional Weekly Class — an engaging community program in Quincy that celebrates the richness and vibrancy of Asian heritage through dance, music, and cultural expression.
Each week, participants come together to explore traditional Asian performing arts in a fun, inclusive, and wellness-focused environment. Our experienced instructors guide students through classical movements and musical forms rooted in Asian traditions, promoting both cultural appreciation and physical and mental well-being.
Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned performer, this weekly gathering offers an excellent opportunity to connect with culture, stay active, and build friendships across generations.
EACH thanks the Massachusetts Cultural Council's (MCC) Festive Funding for enabling EACH to present vibrant Asian cultural performances at five community sites during the 2025 Spring Festival season: Quincy, Newton, Boston, Malden, and Arlington. From behind-the-scenes preparations to colorful stage shows, EACH's Arts and Culture Dance Troupe brought tradition to life through the Chopstick and Fan Dances and other traditional arts. A total of 790 attendees, across all locations, joined in celebrating the Lunar New Year with joy and cultural pride.
In addition to advancing MCC's mission of supporting local arts, encouraging diversity and inclusion, and enhancing the quality of life in communities across Massachusetts, EACH provided free cultural programming for attendees. These performances not only entertained but also significantly deepened intercultural understanding across diverse neighborhoods, a testament to the community's rich cultural fabric and spirit of inclusivity.
The 2024 August Moon Festival, held on August 21 at the Southern Artery Senior Center in Quincy and organized by EACH, brought the vibrant spirit of the traditional Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival to the local community.

The dance troupe, dressed in traditional attire, showcased their cultural pride through graceful movements, delighting the audience and fostering cross-cultural immersion. This celebration embodied the festival’s themes of unity, prosperity, and appreciation of heritage, creating a festive and meaningful experience for all.
The Town of Arlington, Massachusetts, recently organized the 2023 Lunar New Year Festive Event on February 2 at the Arlington Town Hall.

As an organization, we are committed to preserving and promoting traditional dance and musical instrument performances and fostering arts and cultural practices in our community.
